Modifications and functional genomics of human transfer RNA

Open access
Pan, Tao·2018·Cell Research

Abstract

Transfer RNA (tRNA) is present at tens of millions of transcripts in a human cell and is the most abundant RNA in moles among all cellular RNAs. tRNA is also the most extensively modified RNA with, on an average, 13 modifications per molecule. The primary function of tRNA as the adaptor of amino acids and the genetic code in protein synthesis is well known. tRNA modifications play multi-faceted roles in decoding and other cellular processes. The abundance, modification, and aminoacylation (charging) levels of tRNAs contribute to mRNA decoding in ways that reflect the cell type and its environment; however, how these factors work together to maximize translation efficiency remains to be understood. tRNAs also interact with many proteins not involved in translation and this may coordinate translation activity and other processes in the cell. This review focuses on the modifications and the functional genomics of human tRNA and discusses future perspectives on the explorations of human tRNA biology.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
